**What you were expecting to happen, and what actually happened:**  
I selected a blue Mana Potion with The Gray Kings cast. All blue gems were destroyed but no true damage was done to blue troops.

**How often does this happen? When did it begin happening?**  
Probably since Mana potions were created.

**Steps to make it happen again**  
Redundant.
